3. Appliance garage. If you have often-used small appliances but want to keep your countertops free and clear, an appliance garage is a great solution. The system keeps your toaster, mixer and other appliances within easy reach while allowing them to be shut away when not in use for a clutter-free look.

4. Mini spice shelf. In tight spaces such as the kitchen in this narrow Washington, D.C., row house, you’ve got to get clever with your storage.

6. Step-stool cabinet. Figuring out where to put a step stool might seem like a trivial matter, but when you use one often and don’t want it cluttering up the kitchen, the situation can become a bit frustrating. Houzz writer Becky Harris found several smart solutions for conveniently storing step stools, including this slim cabinet at the end of an island.
7. Back-of-island cabinets. Island seating is a popular choice for many homeowners. One thing to remember is that having seating there doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t also have storage there. Many homeowners use this undercounter cabinet space to store large serving platters or rarely used appliances.
